The sun is sinking fast

Author: E. Caswall, 1814-1878 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #242 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Evening Lyrics: 1 The sun is sinking fast, The daylight dies; Let love awake, and pay Her evening sacrifice. 2 As Christ upon the Cross His head inclined, And to His Father's hands His parting soul resigned, 3 So now herself my soul Would wholly give Into His sacred charge, In whom all spirits live; 4 So now beneath His eye Would calmly rest, Without a wish or thought Abiding in the breast, 5 Save that His will be done, Whate'er betide, Dead to herself, and dead In Him to all beside. 6 Thus would I live; yet now Not I, but He In all His power and love Henceforth alive in me. 7 One sacred Trinity! One Lord Divine! May I be ever His, And He for ever mine. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. COLUMBA

[Refrain] 3 'Tis thine to save, from peril of perdition, The souls for whom the Lord His life laid down; Beware lest, slothful to fulfil thy mission, Thou lose one jewel that should deck His crown. [Refrain] 4 Proclaim to every people, tongue, and nation That God, in whom they live and move, is Love: Tell how He stooped to save His lost creation, And died on earth that man might live above. [Refrain] 5 Give of thy sons to bear the message glorious, Give of thy wealth to speed them on their way, Pour out thy soul for them in prayer victorious And haste the coming of the glorious day.
